Tuesday 28 January 2020 to Wednesday 29 January 2020

12:00 - 13:00
Location:

This talk argues for a change of emphasis from Burns the ‘poet’ to Burns, in his most radically innovative capacity, as folk musician, early ethno-musicologist and prolific national song-writer. In so doing, the lecture features numerous musical illustrations from the only ever recorded Complete Songs of Robert Burns (12 vols, Linn Records) which Freeman released in 2003 to international acclaim.*
